Aston Martin DBS Superleggera Front Grille

front grille of the Aston Martin DBS Superleggera is one of its most defining features—a massive, hexagonal “gaping maw” designed for maximum cooling and aerodynamic efficiency.

Because the DBS is a high-performance flagship, the grille is a technical component available in several finishes and regional specifications.

1. Part Numbers & Variations

The base part number for the main grille mesh is KY73-8A100, but the suffix determines the finish and market:

KY73-8A100-AB (Gloss Black): The standard finish for most DBS models, providing a stealthy, aggressive look.
KY73-8A100-CB (Bright Finish): A more traditional metallic silver mesh, often seen on “classic” luxury specs.
KY73-8A100-BB (Federal/USA): Specifically designed to accommodate US-spec sensors or bumper overriders if required by regional safety laws.

2. Material & Construction

Design: A high-flow hexagonal mesh pattern that is significantly larger than the grille on the DB11.
Aerodynamics: It works in conjunction with the front splitter and the “Curlicue” fender vents to manage airflow over and through the car, reducing front-end lift at high speeds.
Surround: The grille is typically framed by a dark-finish surround that integrates directly into the carbon fiber front bumper assembly (KY73-17D957-A).

3. Pricing & Availability (2026 Estimates)

Replacing a DBS grille is a significant expense, often due to stone chips or minor front-end impacts.

Condition	Estimated Price	Note
New OEM (Dealer)	$2,500 – $3,100	Full assembly including the mesh and frame.
Used (Grade A)	$1,100 – $1,600	Ensure no broken “honeycomb” segments or tabs.
Aftermarket Carbon	$3,500+	Custom carbon fiber weave versions are available from specialists.

Installation Note

Replacing the grille requires the removal of the entire front bumper assembly. While the bumper is off, it is standard practice to inspect the Front Parking Sensors and the Forward-Facing Camera, as they are mounted in close proximity to the grille’s upper edge. If your car has Adaptive Cruise Control, the radar sensor sits directly behind the lower section of this mesh.
